An ally of Syria since 1956, Russia has supported the Syrian government since the Syrian Civil War began in 2011, with military aid in the form of weaponry, training, and military advisors. In October 2011 and again February 2012, Russia blocked Western-backed resolutions in the United Nations Security Council because those resolutions left the possibility of sanctions, or even military intervention,〔 against the Syrian Assad government open. In January and February 2012, Russian peace initiatives were dismissed by the oppositional Syrian National Council and by the Western powers The Russian government in September 2015 suggested that the Syrian Civil War was at least in part caused by the US and allies pushing for a "so-called" democratic revolution in Syria by arming and training "so-called" moderate Syrian opposition groups,〔 and called for a united front against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) that includes the Assad government.〔 Western powers however have stated that the Assad government shouldn't have a place in a coalition against ISIL.〔 In September 2015, the Russian Federation Council approved the use of Russian military in Syria to fight militant groups at a request from the Syrian President Bashar Assad. Russian and Western officials stated that Russian strikes targeted not only ISIL, but also rebel groups in the Army of Conquest coalition like al-Nusra Front, al-Qaeda's Syrian branch. ==Background== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Russian involvement in the Syrian Civil War」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
